We had a lot more siege engines when we hit Valkyrja, though. I forget how many we had, but it was at least double what Aurvandil had.

My army alone had at least 20 SE's for that last big push into Valkyrja.

This, the whole POINT of Madina seem to be about making sure the realm would be almost impossible to unify. Probably seemed pretty safe when you consider you can only enter their realm through a city or a stronghold.

well.. it's supposed to give dukes lots of power... until you appoint the wrong duke.

Man, if Thulsoma had the resources that Madina has...why why why Fatmilak was not as pimped up as Storms Keep?  ???

You did know that Fatmilak was owned by Madina, right?

Well, yes, but I think he was referring to Tower Fatmilak the stronghold, not Fatmilak the rural.

Because like we said Madina culture didn't really push unity. Probably find that those that had the gold didn't want to give it up for some stronghold that wasn't theirs. Given that we have already seen some regions jump over it is also entirely possible that many in Madina WANTED the realm to fall.

This is true considering Fatmilak and Bol immediately joined Aurvandil upon Tower Fatmilak's take over. Now Madina even less days to live :D

Actually the defenses of the Tower were greatly reduced because the newly appointed Marshal of one of the armies decided to take his army on maneuvers away from the Tower and no one objected.

If Halicos had been there to see that, the Lord of Fatmilak would be facing a good duel to the death right now. Hmm... Return RP sorted!

Hey, Corin was only ever loyal to Halicos and Fatmilak. He never had time for loyalty to Madina. So, bring it to him! Though I honestly cant say if he'd accept it. He's rather plump and lazy in all things not regarding trade.

Ahh, that confuses things, Halicos is fairly fond of Corin. Didn't know he was still Lord of Fatmilak. Hmm...
